Welcome!

Lawrence Bird Alliance is the chapter of the National Audubon Society serving Lawrence, Douglas County, and surrounding communities in eastern Kansas.

Our mission is to provide opportunities for greater understanding and appreciation of birds and other wildlife, to encourage sustainable practices, and to advocate for actions and policies which result in protection and preservation of intact ecosystems.

JOIN US! All of our resources are available to the public free of charge and our meetings and field trips are always open to the public. If you would like to become a member, the cost is just $20 per year for an individual membership. Click here for more membership information.

Upcoming Events

All events are free and open to everyone. All levels of interest and experience are invited. A few extra binoculars will be available for loan during field trips.

FIELD TRIPS

Every month we host field trips to the top birding locations in our area. Join us to learn about local birds and meet fellow birders. Our field trips are led by Dr. Roger Boyd, an expert in bird identification.
EDUCATIONAL PRESENTATIONS:
We present an educational program every month except June, July, and December. The programs are the fourth Monday of the month at 7 p.m. Most are hybrid presentations — in person at the Baker Wetlands Discovery Center in Lawrence and virtually on Zoom.
